2 Samuel 4:1-2

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

Ishbaal Assassinated

4 When Saul’s son Ishbaal^[a] heard that Abner had died at Hebron, his courage failed, and all Israel was dismayed. ² Saul’s son had two captains of raiding bands; the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab. They were sons of Rimmon a Benjaminite from Beeroth—for Beeroth is considered to belong to Benjamin.
